LONDON : Aston Martin will keep the upgrades flowing after going into Formula One's August break with Fernando Alonso third in the championship behind Red Bull's dominant leader Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez.
"We are not switching off the tap. Full on," Krack told reporters after Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix saw Alonso retain third place overall by a single point ahead of Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton. After 12 of the 22 races last year, Aston Martin were languishing in ninth place and had scored only 19 points compared to their current haul of 196.
Double world champion Alonso, 42, joined Aston from Alpine at the end of last year in what now looks an inspired decision.
